Many women throughout the world use the jewel box between their legs to acquire great treasures of their own. Free dinners, drinks, gifts, trips...the list is endless. If you're lucky enough to find a sugar daddy you may even get an apartment or car in exchange for sex. Women - very cunning in their ways, often using sex as a manipulative tool in relationships. But the women in Colombia have taken this manipulative power and used it for the greater good. On two occasions, women in local communities have instituted sex strikes until horrific road conditions were repaired.

It began in 2011 in the remote town of Barbacoas. The main road connecting the town to larger cities with decent hospitals was often closed due to mudslides or flooding. When it was operational, the 35 mile stretch of road was in such disrepair that it could take up to 24 hours to travel. Covered in potholes "large enough to swallow a truck." Sound familiar? There was no chance for ambulances, police officials or anyone to timely respond to emergencies given the bad condition of the road. After several pregnant women died on the route before reaching the hospital, local female residents decided to take drastic measures.

They instituted a "crossed leg" movement," refusing sex to their husbands and significant others until the road was repaired. Some were so dedicated to the cause that they slept in the town's sports coliseum each night, returning home in the morning. The Mayor's wife even joined the coalition, sleeping in a separate bedroom each night. What happened? After a few weeks, local men took action and began facilitating solutions for road repair. Even local government officials were shamed into action, eventually enlisting the assistance of Colombian army engineers who began repaving the road.

Almost every day on LiveJournal, there's some post about the horrible condition of Russian roads and I too have written about them. Traffic jams, pot holes, dirt roads, all making travel in the country tedious. Maybe a sex strike is the easy answer? :)) What do you think?

Female readers - do you commonly play this cross-legged game in your relationship to get your way? Men - how about your wife or girlfriend? Personally I have never used sex in a manipulative way, at least knowingly. I don't let random men at bars buy me drinks, etc. and I think women who do so with no intention or desire of getting to know the man are losers. Moreover, women who use sex to simply get gifts, free dinners or other superficial things without emotion or passion for the man are no different than prostitutes in my opinion. They're being paid in exchange for sex, yet believe they are distinguishable from prostitutes in some manner. To me, they are worse. At least prostitutes are honest in their intentions and motives. You can't open their box without first inserting dollars, and this is mutually understood by both parties from the very beginning.

Your affair doesn't fall into this category because you have feelings for him, and definitely passion as you're wildly attracted to him. So, it's different. "Every woman for herself," what a pity! There's power in unity as evidenced by this story. :)

Well, in this case I was using "jewel box" in another way because "box" is English slang for vagina/pussy. :)) Is this commonly known? But I understand your point. Such women don't care about horrible road conditions suffered by the common man. They are too busy enjoying a life of wealth and prestige to the detriment of others. This is the essence of corruption.

Btw, common slang phrases in English - "I want to get inside her box." "Is the box full or empty?" (i.e. shaven or unshaven). Just in case you want to know some dirty English phrases. :)

At this point, it's necessary to come up with creative solutions to fix the road situation in Russia so maybe this could work? :) If both the man and woman understand the nature of the relationship, then it's fine but this is not normally the case. Such women are often deceitful, conveying false emotions to keep the relationship going and money flowing to them. I will never respect such actions nor understand how some intentionally play with the emotions of others. It's a cruel game.

The book looks interesting. "A healthy woman with normal inborn behavioral programs is selective, and the mere idea of sex for money is disgusting to her." I don't think it's true of the modern world. The majority, including women, now view sex as a recreational sport and there's a lot less selectivity with partners. When the value of something is lessened, there's no need to invest a lot of time in selectivity. Anything will do.

But it's not yet the mentality of Russian society to bond as a whole, regardless of gender. This is why there's so much disharmony amongst everyone, nationals against nationals, nationals against immigrants, etc. It's all a very vicious cycle where nothing gets accomplished for the benefit of the nation as a whole.

My English teacher hid a lot from me :)There is a huge difference in demographics. Ukrainian, belorussian and especially russian figures are far from common. The average men is guarenteed attention. Such a strike looks really strange here. It's probably like global warming threat for Eskimo people :)

Well what if Russian females decide to start a revolution and ignore their men until shitty provincial roads are repaired? How would Russian men respond? Maybe Putin would jail the women for such behavior, or enact a new law forbidding husband neglect!! :))

It is the ridiculous story and anything more. The majority of women in Russia watch soap operas or play Schoolmates (Одноклассники), go for the unloved work. Why to them to demand improvement of quality of roads?

Roads. In my term of service in Russia, I had a flat tire once a week and a flat rim once a month. The other once, I told a friend, Beware of the potholes and he responded, They are not potholes, they are manholes.

Boxes. In Russia, the are not full or empty, They are wanting to be washed.

Good idea .... However, in reality, we in Russia will strike so .. Wives, mistresses are on strike, the prostitutes in bulk on these rough roads. Immediately demand! Even if money will be allocated, they will be stolen ....

Women in another Colombian town also went on strike and they actually paid the prostitutes not to engage in sex with locals. So, there were absolutely no choices for the men. This is a form of cruel and unusual punishment! :))
